What our customers have to say
Thanks, I would have put 4.5 stars if I could as you did an excellent job in packaging and sending work from Wellington to Christchurch. It got there in one piece and client was very happy. The only 3 things I would have changed is more secure transportation of work before being packaged on your premises, knowing that the price I quoted for artwork would be considered in overall price (as material costs aren't the same as value of work after many years as artist), and knowing from the offset it would be shipped via mainfreight. Otherwise very happy customer 😊

Roger and Dahlia have been wonderful. From the outset they have been so helpful and responsive with all of my questions and have gone out of their way to make sure our things get to the UK. They are so friendly, approachable and professional. I would highly recommend this company.

Roger and Dahlia were both fantastic. They helped me through a difficult process of moving a shipment to Denmark. They were friendly, professional and communicated every step of the way.

I appreciated the personable level of service, the can-do attitude, and the real care taken when moving my furniture. I've used the "big" firms before and been let down. Pack & Send are a bunch of regular people who take pride in what they do. I will use them again.

FAIRFAX STORAGE AND TRANSPORT LIMITEDWe required some very urgent freight to be delivered to several locations in a very small timeframe. Goods were collected and delivered on time and no damages. Highly recommend to anyone. Thank you team.

I use pack and send to relocate my house hold goods from Wellington to Christchurch.I paid for the premium service which was rather expensive and told that it would take 4 days total for delivery.However it took over 4 weeks for my stuff to arrive! Communication was extremely poor and unprofessional.There was a period of 8 days in which I would call them and they would not be able to tell where my stuff was currently or an expected delivery date.I was so scared that everything had been lost,stolen or damaged as they had no clue where everything was or what was happening.The excuses I were given were poor and flimsy.Blaming covid is not valid .My stuff was just traveling from Wellington to Christchurch.A lot of stress and anxiety was caused by the whole ordeal.I could not properly move in till my stuff came.I had to purchase new items,borrow from family or go with out while I waited.I was prepared for an over for 4 week wait.No compensation was offered or proper apology .Do not use Pack and send Thorndon!!!

My sincere thanks to Dahlia and the team at Pack & Send. I had a very special ANZAC Day gift for my Vietnam Veteran stepfather to be sent, and it was packaged superbly and arrived the following day. The service they provided was top-notch, and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I went to pick up my parcel on 3 Aug 2020 but wasn't able to because the store was closed. The notice on the window and also the google indicates that the store opens until 5.30pm but when I got there after work at 5.15pm, it was closed. I couldn't even see any notice for the early closure. Slightly annoyed for not even keeping the store open till the stated hours.

We used Pack and Send (Thornton Quay) to send about 12 kilograms of historic paper files from our Parish Church to the Church National Archives in Christchurch. The staff were most helpful both on the phone and at the office with packaging and records. The box of files was quickly and efficiently delivered to its destination - and with good communication.

Not a good experience with this branch. They were collecting and delivering a set of rimu cupboards from Martinborough to Napier for me and I had contacted several companies for quotes inc Mainfreight & Pack & Send. Pack & Send were the cheaper option. Long story short - they outsourced to Mainfreight and tried to charge me once the cupboard had been collected for extra packaging of over $100. Head Office luckily got involved and offered a much more reasonable wrap. The service from the Thorndon Quay branch was so poor I ended up dealing with Mainfreight directly to organise delivery. Lesson learned - pay the extra for a more professional service.

Worst courier company. I sent my baggage For which the custom duty was paid in advanced without our concern. Even they did not try to mail us about this.While the person who was from pack and send name KAMAL guided us that they will inform before paying any custom duty.KAMAL did not pick even our one call when I tried to ask about all this matter.KAMAL told us to mention $990 which is the insurance amount . He did not even bother to explain the difference between the insurance amount and the baggage cost I have not receive any respond from their side till date.I have found that duty has been paid in excess of what was actually leviable on the goods

Extremely slow and lost two boxes of precious items that were never seen again, although we're certain they never left Wellington! Excuse after excuse. Took two months for remaining items to arrive in Australia. Never again.

These guys packed and sent a computer for me that I bought on TradeMe. Arrived the next day, ahead of their proposed schedule. Excellent work guys (and substantially cheaper than the other Pack and Send branch in Wellington).

Living in Brisbane I had to visit Wellington to arrange for household effects including furniture, books and fragile items to be transported to both Brisbane and Melbourne. I initially rang Pack & Send in Thorndon from Brisbane to find out more about their services. From the very start Roger was exceptionally helpful which gave me confidence to use them when I arrived in Wellington. I had a very short time frame to organise things when I got to Wellington and couldn't be happier with the service Pack & Send provided. All items have arrived safe and sound and I can thoroughly recommend this branch if you need items sent overseas.

To Lindsay & Emily @ Pack & Send Dunedin.I have been living in China for some time now but still buy the odd thing from New Zealand and have it sent over. Last time I used another NZ wide postal service and the 10 day delivery ended up taking 3 months to arrive (with no tracking!). This time I remembered using Pack & Send from my days in Dunedin so emailed them to see if they could help. I am so glad I did.The service was exemplary and hassle free. I didn't have to worry about anything, Lindsay and Emily took care of all of it for me. And my package arrived, at my door in China, 3 days later!!!.Never have I experienced such wonderful, friendly and efficient service. Well done guys, you are the absolute best!

To Jeremy - Pack & Send, Takapuna Branch, Auckland.There I was sitting at home late this afternoon, when my phone rang and it was a courier (a very friendly lady), to say that she was close by and about to deliver the Chair and Footstool! It was such a lovely surprise, as I didn't expect delivery of it quite so soon.Jeremy, they both look fantastic in their designated room, and I especially have you to thank for the professionally wrapped, and speedy delivery, and I'm ever so grateful to you and your team at the Takapuna Branch, for making the whole process so easy and painless for me.I look forward to dealing with you again, because with the superb service you have provided, I now have every reason to always use Pack and Send, so thanks again!

Blown away at these guys' packaging. I had a very fragile and large item sent last week.. it did take a bit longer to arrive than anticipated but when I saw how well it was wrapped I could see why. A foam padded box, bubblewrap, cardboard and cable ties. These guys sure know how to package stuff properly. AAA+++

These guys Mark and Andrew couldn't have tried any harder to help me and they undercut NZ Post hugely.They will be getting all of my repeat business in the future.And to top it all off they tell me that my package will be delivered in less than a week. In the past it has taken up to three weeks for a smaller parcel go go to the same address.Hats off to you Mark and your super cool staff.

I would like to publicly thank, and recommend Richard from Tauranga Pack and Send. I required an urgent shipment of furniture and personal effects from Whakatane to Sydney in a very short time-frame and Richard could not have been more accommodating or willing! He uplifted within a couple of days and when I went to his office in Tauranga the day after uplifting to complete all the paperwork, he had packaged all items so thoroughly and carefully. He also helped me complete the customs paperwork very efficiently and within about 20 minutes we were all done! He kept me informed of progress and I received my shipment at my home in Sydney exactly one week later! Richard is professional, efficient and he cares about what he does. I can't recommend him and his service highly enough! I am so grateful. Elizabeth Sullivan, Sydney
